2 years ago I'm getting a very similar issue, however this issue is affecting everything, not just fullscreen video, and it has only started after the recent update to version 10. If I downgrade to version 9.1-3 it works perfectly.

It may have something to do with the now old default config I'm using, I'll see what happens with a new config, but I doubt it will change anything.
Update: after trying a new config, it's still stuttering droping frames, I'm going to stick with the old version for now.

run picom (picom repo or picom-git), run video fullscreen. i use youtube for example, enabling stats for nerds. see frame drops steadily increasing.
Meanwhile, when using the "picom-ibhagwan-git" repo, launching picom with the same flags and with the same config file, no noticeable frame drop is noticed.
